Autoimmune bullous diseases are a group of rare, acquired disorders characterized by overlapping features, resistance to treatment, and potential fatality. They need quick and proper management to avoid fatal complications. Ayurveda is found to provide better relief in some autoimmune disorders. Herein, we report a 40-year-old male of autoimmune bullous skin disorder ( Visphoṭaka ) who failed to respond to allopathic medicines and was subsequently treated with Ayurvedic medicines and achieved complete remission.
